Qin Yao, that pretty boy keeps staring at me—do you think he’s trying to hit on me?
Inside the volleyball court.
The girl, built like a gorilla, lowered her head shyly as she spoke.
"Lijuan, who’s been staring at you?"
Qin Yao wiped her sweat and teased, then curiously glanced in the direction Zhou Lijuan had indicated. Instantly, her eyes sparkled with delight.
Over there stood An Yi, Bai Xiu, and their two other dormmates.
"He actually came to school today!"
A joyful smile spread across Qin Yao’s face—but then it froze.
Wait. Zhou Lijuan said some pretty boy had been staring at her.
Qin Yao’s beautiful eyes narrowed with suspicion.
She knew all four guys from An Yi’s dorm.
Qin Shan was tall and muscular, with rough features—nicknamed "Gorilla." Just the name alone ruled him out as a "pretty boy."
Liu Dachao stood around 5'7", wore glasses, and exuded a sleazy vibe from head to toe.
Bai Xiu wasn’t bad-looking, but after two months of not eating or drinking, he’d withered into a skeletal figure—sunken cheeks, sickly pallor, and weak limbs. Plus, his eyes kept darting around at girls!
So, by comparison, An Yi stood out like a shining star—handsome, charming, with a roguish handsomeness that made even his wandering gaze seem cool.
Nearby, a few girls blushed as they stole glances at him, too shy to ask for his number.
No surprise there. In just a month, An Yi’s charm stat had jumped from 8.3 to 9.0.
His looks were now at a level where girls on the street would turn their heads for a second look.
"Yao Yao, he won’t stop staring! I can’t even focus on volleyball!"
Zhou Lijuan’s face burned red as she spoke.
Qin Yao grinned, her tone sweet yet menacing. "Don’t worry, his eyes must be acting up. I’ll pluck them out later and wash them for him!"
"Ahh! So annoying! Why is he still looking?!"
Zhou Lijuan stomped her foot, her face now fully crimson.
Qin Yao frowned, sensing something off.
Because right now, An Yi’s gaze was locked in a heated standoff with Lin Chen—sparks flying, as if they were about to throw down. He wasn’t even glancing their way.
"Uh, Lijuan… which pretty boy are you talking about?"
Zhou Lijuan pointed at Qin Shan, bashful. "Him! He’s been staring at me the whole time! Made me mess up so many plays!"
Qin Yao: "..."
This girl clearly had a very different definition of "pretty boy."

In the spectator stands.
An Yi turned to Bai Xiu with utmost seriousness. "Lao Bai, tell me your life goals. I’ll make them happen."
"I want to sleep," Bai Xiu mumbled weakly.
"That doesn’t count!"
"I crave tits!" Bai Xiu grinned.
An Yi nodded solemnly. "Done. Tonight, we hit the club—full VIP package."
"Wait, why are you suddenly so eager?"
Bai Xiu frowned.
Even for a bro, this was too much. It’s not like I’m your future brother-in-law!
An Yi leaned in. "You wanna work under me?"
"Sure, if you’re a capitalist pig." Bai Xiu yawned.
The word "capitalist" made An Yi pause.
With his current net worth in the millions, he probably qualified.
In just a month, he’d gone from drowning in debt to stacking millions—a terrifying pace.
But An Yi knew the truth:
Small wealth? That’s on you.
Big wealth? That’s on capital.
Relying on healing people for tips, or "redistributing wealth" from criminal dens (ahem, upholding justice), plus exploiting the Demon Fund’s loopholes—it all added up.
But it was exhausting.
For the ultra-rich, a billion was just a "small target."
But for him? Even working 24/7 might not cut it.
He knew how hard-earned his current millions were.
And not every day offered a chance to raid a gang’s hideout. The risks were high.
The Xia Kingdom was full of elites—he wasn’t arrogant enough to think himself invincible.
To hit those billion-dollar targets, he needed his own empire.
And the An Corporation would be his foundation.
Being a big boss, raking in cash while living the high life—now that was the dream.
An Yi thought for a moment. "How about this—monthly salary of 100k. Work for me."
Bai Xiu’s drowsy eyes snapped wide. "You serious? 100k?!"
Even as top graduates of Donghai University, a six-figure monthly salary straight out of college was insane.
An Yi smirked. "You know me—I keep my word."
Bai Xiu shrugged. "Fine. If you can actually pay me 100k a month, I’m in."
Ding!
[Potential] Son of Destiny (Bai Xiu) detected. Add to faction?
An Yi hesitated, tapping "No" for now.
His destiny points weren’t maxed yet—too soon to recruit.
Still, he was thrilled. Now that’s what I call a bro! Didn’t even need to bribe him with women!
Unlike that stubborn soldier over there.
His gaze drifted to Lin Chen, who happened to glance back, scowling.
Why’s this loser staring at me instead of the game?
Beside them, Liu Dachao grinned. "100k a month? Sweet. Take me with you, Yi-ge."
Ding!
[Cloud Hands] Liu Dachao requests recruitment. Accept?
An Yi blinked.
The system was picky.
Ordinary recruits? No notifications—like Ding Renfeng or Yao Ji.
But those who triggered alerts? They were special.
So far, only a few had: the Gourd Immortal, [Iron Arhat] Long, and [Blood Arhat] Hu.
Now Liu Dachao had a title too—Cloud Hands?
An Yi had a similar skill, Thieving Hands—basically pickpocketing.
What the hell was Cloud Hands?
Iron Palm Drifting on Milk?
Not to be outdone, Qin Shan chimed in. "Me too! I want 100k!"
Ding!
[Cannon Fist] Qin Shan requests recruitment. Accept?
An Yi’s lips twitched. Even Qin Shan was special?
Then again, all three dormmates had their quirks.
Qin Shan and Liu Dachao’s physical abilities far surpassed normal people’s.
Back when they first moved in, An Yi wasn’t even sure he could take them in a fight. Bai Xiu had seemed the most ordinary.
But after his hibernation, Bai Xiu unlocked cheat mode, even entering the Potential Son of Destiny tier.
Now was the perfect time to recruit.
An Yi cleared his throat and swiftly tapped Accept on the system prompts. "100k a month? Done. You’re all hired."
"Pfft—you couldn’t even afford dorm fees!" Liu Dachao rolled his eyes.
Back then, An Yi had left the dorm because he couldn’t pay—insisting on moving to a "free" rental.
And now he was talking about six-figure salaries?
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
